Gus Fring Is Officially Returning in Better Call Saul

The last time we saw Gus Fring (played by Giancarlo Esposito) on Breaking Bad, he looked...uh, pretty grisly. A bomb blowing off half your face will do that. However, in the third season of the spinoff Better Call Saul, it looks like Fring is coming back.

Fring makes an appearance in a hilarious-yet-unsettling ad for Los Pollos Hermanos, the infamous fast food restaurant from Breaking Bad.

"At Los Pollos Hermanos, we know only the best will do for you and your family," a narrator says. "What does family taste like? In your heart, you know it's the best ingredients, the spiciest spices, all prepared with love and care – and always delivered with a friendly smile. That's the Los Pollos Hermanos promise."

"We are so sure you'll like them," Fring says about his restaurant's curly fries with a creepy grin. "And if you don't, they're on me!"

Only Gus Fring could make curly fries seem ominous.

This alone may just seem like a throwback, but Esposito took to Twitter with a not-so-subtle message of excitement: "I'm back!! What you've been waiting for, the rise of Gus in coming [sic]!"
